Computer Types

Most computers have the tech trait and can be hacked using skills like Computers, Crafting, and Thievery. Magic computers might incorporate programmable aeon stones or bound machine spirits that command ancient constructs and are usually Hacked using Arcana, Nature, Occultism, or Religion. Hybrid computers have the tech and magic traits, such as a password-protected spell chip or an arcane barrier controlled by a console. Hybrid computers often have different access points for their magical and technological components, but Hacking either should grant access to the computer. A computer's stat block will never be able to list every possible skill a character might use during a hacking encounter. You can use the values listed in a computer's stat block as a guideline to resolve creative, unlisted solutions to a hacking encounter.
